h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hello, Staff of ,

Would you be interested in a record of my personal battle against chaos, A29507240?

Hi, Happy Nerd

We certainly would! This is a very good piece, I like your writing style. Is it complete, or is there more to add?

Rich

Thank you, Rich.

I wish it were complete, but I haven't even finished straightening up in the office yet!

You could wait till both the reorganization and the diary are complete, or perhaps use the writing as a serial during the project's evolution.


Happy Nerd

I thought you might have the rest offline or something - tantalising us with a snippet

Of course, the date on it didn't register with me properly either!

Could be kind of fun to run it as it happens. I'd need a cast-iron gurantee that you'd finish the series if we were to do that, though. There's nothing I hate more than an unfinished serial - and I should know, I've written a few unfinished serials myself What are the chances of us getting a photo submitted with each one as a visual update?

You drive a hard bargain, but okay:
I swear I'll clean our house.

I'm updating the entry pretty close to real time, and can take photos.

Wow, it's growing!

We're going to be too late for the next issue, unfortunately, so we'll have to start running it a bit behind. Your best bet from here might be to stop wherever you're happy to break the timeline and submit that text to the Post Team email with a photo, and we'll schedule it when we can. Then when there's another natural break, do the same so we've got a sequence of articles coming in. Does that make any sense?

Makes sense to me. Do you want me to format it in GuideML?

If you can, that would be a bonus!

I just sent the entry and two photos from my gmail account.

Just to let you know we got it, and the photos are great!
